“You are a superstar! I absolutely loved my session and have been raving about to
everyone.
Thank you so much. Doing my core class has totally changed, I’m much more focused on it and wow my abs feel properly worked!”
“I have lost inches from my hips and waist. A former work colleague said I looked 10 years younger, plus I’ve worn a mini skirt for the first time in 15 years! Getting loads of compliments!”
“Last weekend for the first time in ages I wore a very tight top and jeans and felt brill. Thank you so much!”
“I was referred to Jacquie by my Physiotherapist. I had been suffering from Tennis Elbow and Sciatica for many months and was told that Pilates could help.
After only a few classes, I started to notice that I had less pain in my right arm and my Sciata was beginning to alleviate.
Before long I was able to resume going to Circuit Classes twice a week and running at the weekends.
Using her knowledge of Pilates, Jacquie has created unique workouts for me that have elements of BarreConcept and Callanetics thrown in for good mix.
My family and friends have all noticed the difference in my overall wellbeing.
Thank you so much “Jacquie Pilates” you are a miracle worker!
“Jacquie has been working with me for the last six months and the improvement in my posture and well being has been noticed and commented on by several of my friends.
I developed a scoliosis in my spine during my teenage years. I didn’t really suffer any pain at this time and it didn’t bother me much until I was into my 30’s. From then on I have been treated by physiotherapists and osteopaths, I’ve attended pain clinics for acupuncture and I’ve worn a tens machine and been on various painkillers.
Latterly I was attending a private physiotherapist every six weeks and taking 5 gabapentin a day. I had constant pain. It hurt getting in and out of the car. I couldn’t stand up straight from a sitting position and it was painful sitting down. If I walked for too long I started to bend forwards and couldn’t straighten up. Standing upright was very painful so I tended to stoop.
A chat with a neighbour about Pilates led me to Jacquie and she started working with me on a weekly basis. After only 4 months I was standing straighter and had better flexibility through my back. I was able to exercise every day and providing I didn’t overdo things I was staying pain free.
Jacquie has made a huge improvement to my overall well being and health in a very short space of time.”
“I was initially recommended to Jacquie to assist with a nagging sciatica issue. After narrowly escaping the surgeons’ knife, Jacquie has certainly helped enormously and the sciatica is no longer a significant issue.
Furthermore, as a relatively keen golfer, the pilates, as instructed by Jacquie, has had a great influence on my golfing success. There is an endless stream of willing golf professionals (and amateurs!) available to assist with the technical aspects of the game of golf, but if the body isn’t flexible, there is nothing to help the core (pun intended) issue of golf: swing.
Additionally, a stronger body without flexibility is like bricks without mortar! Pilates is clearly a driving force behind improvements in very many sports and Jacquies’ skill in adapting her vast knowledge of pilates to specific sporting needs is exemplary.
The improvements to my golf ability have been significant, but benefits to general demeanour cannot be overstated: after each session one feels that bit taller and stronger and recently playing golf 18 times in a three week period was entirely manageable to a person the ‘wrong’ side of 50.
Jacquie, many thanks for all your help.”
